Excuses are as varied as the cause or reason for which we invent them. But the worst ones are those , the heart invents for the mind. Not that mind is always right . but sometimes we know we are lying to our-self. Last 3 days I have “excused” myself from some important things and I am not proud to that –
- I did not go to gym / or even for an evening walk which I so much love.
- I did not write anything for 3 days, creating a backlog for blogging and same for reading blogs too. Not to add , that delaying my own therapy in times of over thinking.
- I was irritated with something and I acted rude with my brother.
- I did not pray or thank god for all the smiles he adds to my life every day.
I can list out the excuses / genuine reasons here for all these but the fact that I know I wasn’t right , doesn’t let me dwell on that. Instead I have to now fix all these. And find a way out before I make a pattern to excuse myself out of my duties and responsibilities.
Here’s to a happier and better week ahead. To heal , to read , to write , to smile , to love and be worthy of being loved.
Stay happy and blessed.
Sometimes blurting out can make you feel so well…and when we know where we are falling short, we can take care of it easily 🙂
Hmm.. I seem to always have an excuse for not exercising.. don’t know why my lowering fitness levels are not enough to enthuse me into doing this :(.. All the best at the catching up and making up :).
We all have bad days…sometimes weeks…best wishes for the new week…may it be filled with joy.
Good thought, I like the fix instead of listing out excuses. It is too easy to make excuses about working out.
